We’ll take “Your New Crush,” for 300.
Last night’s episode of Jeopardy! featured a contestant so hot, the Internet couldn’t contain itself. Tom Flynn, a bartender from Goshen, New York, may not have wowed anyone with his score, but he took the win in sex appeal.
He faced off against Beth Horn, a nanny from Dallas, Texas, and Sean Anderson, a law professor from Champaign, Illinois, and even though they had him beat points-wise for most of the game, Tom managed to steal the spotlight on Twitter.

The final nail in his heartthrob coffin came during Final Jeopardy when he didn’t have the correct answer. Instead of taking a guess, he went ahead and made himself into a living meme by simply writing “What” as his answer, and the Internet rejoiced.
